Call them linear and non-linear. The linear games, like Super Mario Bros. and Ninja Gaiden, had you go through each level once and only once. The non-linear games, like Zelda and Metroid, allowed for backtracking and exploration. It wasn’t often you’d find a game that did both.”]

Free DLC is the best kind of DLC, and for a fantastic game like The Messenger there is no such thing as having too much of a good thing.
